  1. and his opening line at the venue will be, "Shoot first, ask questions later!"
  2. I've said it and i'll say it again ... the democrat leftists are nut cases. I used to be democrat when I was younger but then my opinion about democrats started to change around the time trump won his first election. I am sure I am not the only one who sees these leftist liberals as the cause of many problems today.

  5. ahhhh there is the clincher. they cannot decide without ALL the appropriate documents and now someone is saying they have enough documents. something is definitely fishy and someone is trying to save face for someone else
  6. and you are calling for reform from thailand? Why dont you go back to the states and start doing something about it rather than crying from the sidelines? easy to get your hands dirty if you are doing nothing, right?

  16. i guess you are like homer simpson... if you learn something new you start forgetting other things... poor you sucks to be you... you got information input shut down also known as idjitcy
  17. knowing how people love to put down trump and his admin I fail to see how this is sticking it to him. Like any other gvt they just had to submit a proposal, which they didn't. Probably cos they didnt feel like it was worth it to them... hardly time to take out the party hat The United States did not submit a proposal for Greenland's anorthosite mining license due to a combination of factors: Lack of Formal Investment Proposals: Despite expressed interest, the U.S. did not present concrete investment proposals. Greenland's Minister of Mineral Resources, Naaja Nathanielsen, noted that while U.S. business delegates visited, no formal dialogue or direct investments materialized. In contrast, European partners, including the EU and Denmark, progressed more smoothly in their collaborations. Reuters+3@EconomicTimes+3spotmedia.ro+3 Regulatory and Legal Challenges: Greenland's mining legislation does not align with the traditional American approach of land acquisition and resource exploitation. The land belongs to the state, and exploitation licenses are temporary and require significant investment to maintain. This legal framework may have deterred U.S. investors accustomed to different systems. spotmedia.ro Perceived Political Instability: Former President Donald Trump's proposition to purchase Greenland introduced concerns about political stability, potentially making the region less attractive to investors. Greenland's mining minister warned that such rhetoric could harm its appeal to international investors. Financial Times+1Financial Times+1 Infrastructure and Operational Challenges: Greenland's harsh climate, high operational costs, and lack of infrastructure pose significant challenges to mining operations. These factors may have contributed to the U.S.'s hesitation to invest. IEEE Spectrum+1Financial Times+1 In summary, while the U.S. showed interest in Greenland's resources, the absence of formal proposals, coupled with legal, political, and infrastructural challenges, led to the lack of American involvement in the anorthosite mining project.
  18. maybe she is off to greet the Red Bull killer to offer him a safe return alongside yingluck... they could share the fare for the private jet thus giving a perfect example of soft power (whatever that is)
  19. "not fair, not fair!" she cried in a hissy fit rage stomping her Gucci alligator skin shoes...
  20. thing is, you might have genital warts inside your 'yard' and not even know it cause you might not feel it nor can you see it. If you do have them, they have to cut the hot dog in half to do the removal surgery, believe it or not. They can cause cancer... just cause you feel nothing don't mean it aint there...
  21. 🇹🇭 How the Baht Is "Managed": 1. Intervention in the foreign exchange market The BoT buys or sells USD or other foreign currencies to stabilize the Baht. If the Baht strengthens too much (hurting exports), the BoT buys USD and sells Baht to weaken it. If the Baht weakens too much (raising import costs and inflation), the BoT does the opposite. 2. Capital controls (soft measures) In the past, Thailand has used capital control tools to limit speculative inflows/outflows. For example: restrictions on short-term bond purchases by foreign investors, or reporting requirements on currency swaps. 3. Foreign reserve buildup The BoT has accumulated large reserves (hundreds of billions USD) partly to manage currency stability and avoid shocks. Critics argue that stockpiling reserves can artificially weaken the Baht, aiding Thai exports — which some call “manipulation.” 🌎 International Viewpoint: Is this "Currency Manipulation"? The U.S. Treasury periodically reviews countries for currency manipulation. The criteria include: Large trade surpluses with the U.S. Persistent one-sided currency intervention Significant current account surpluses Thailand has been watched, but not formally labeled a “manipulator” in recent U.S. Treasury reports. However, some critics (mainly exporters or financial observers) argue that BoT policies intentionally keep the Baht undervalued to boost exports.
  22. sure, why not... bring back his shoot first ask questions later... wonderful solution. This guy... just doesnt know when to shut up... thing is -- he will never be held accountable
